THE ACHIEVEABLE CAREER

CHAPTER ONE In the concept of seeking God's intervention in choosing a life career, you must understand what career implies. A career is a calling; it is the selection of a trade, occupation or profession from many competing alternatives. A career determines the life of an individual. Therefore, in choosing one, it demands God's intervention. Hear this! Without the knowledge of your Maker, your success becomes man-made and is your subject to the prevailing evil that is ravaging the world. The major reason why you see great men who were great yesterday and reduced to beggars today is simply traceable due to lack of divine help. Be persistent. Be consistent. Never give up, keep pressing on. It takes tenacity to take over the city. -Sule Emmanuel. You will not be a victim in Jesus' name, amen! It then follows that when we connect to our source, success becomes naturally ours. There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure. -Scott Cook Not everyone who is up there today got up there with a steady record of success after success. All roads to achievement start in the land of failure. Success will never come automatically; this is why you must never give up if you must make it in destiny. In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear and failure-Bill Cosby Bellow is scriptural backup BRAINSTORM Jeremiah 33: 3 Says "call unto me and I will rest, answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know". Matthew 7-7 Says "ask, and it will be given to you, seek, and you will find, knock and the door will be opened to you". Proverb 16:3 Says "commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed". James 1:5 Says "if any of you lack wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him". (God is the giver of ideals). Proverb 16:9 Said "in his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps". Proverb 19:21 Said "many are the plans in man's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails". Proverb 21: 30 Said "there is no wisdom, no insight, no plan that can succeed against the Lord". Proverb 16: 1 Said "to man belong the plans of the heart, but from the Lord comes the reply of the tongue". Proverb 3:5-6 Said "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight". Until you have this understanding, you will not appreciate the truth that everything you have, had, been received all through the scriptures. In the same vein, the great Apostle Paul who enjoyed unusual insights, would always say "I can do all things through Christ, which strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13) "but by the grace of God I am what I am... "(1 Corinthians 15: 10) the truth remains, and indisputably too, that things are working only because God, the worker, is at active work in us. Halleluyah! One among the numerous benefits of putting God first in your career journey is that whatever can't stop God can't stand you. Obstacles will be ridiculed before your face because God is ahead of you taking the lead. The Red Sea will be blown open, Jordan will be driven back; mountains will skip like rams, when God takes the lead (see Psalm 114) Many are being overwhelmed and dragged down by crooked forces because they hold the belief that choosing a career is primarily the product of man's efforts.
